About this study

Official title: Phase II Clinical Trial of Treatment With TAK-228 and TAK-117 to Inhibit Homologous Recombination (HR) Followed by Cisplatin and Nab Paclitaxel in Patients With Chemotherapy-pretreated Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer

This study evaluates efficacy of TAK- 228 and TAK- 117 followed by cisplatin and nab paclitaxel in patients with metastatic triple negative breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

Seventy to eighty percent of breast cancers have a gene expression profile which is characterized by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and high proliferation. HRD leads to errors in DNA pathway [non -homologous end joining (NHEJ)] that repair DNA-breaks, a process required for metastatic triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) survival. The hypothesis of this pilot trial is that administration of the oral combination of TAK-228 and TAK-117 (PIKTOR) will inhibit NHEJ in metastatic TNBC, leading at the time of disease progression to metastases that are HR-deficient and sensitive to cisplatin plus nab paclitaxel therapy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Efficacy (Objective Response Rate)

    To assess the objective response rate associated with sequential treatment of the oral combination TAK 228 and 117 followed by nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin in metastatic TNBC. Objective response is measured as prolonged clinical benefit; clinical benefit is defined as progression free survival on study therapy for at least 6 months.

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 2 years 8 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Efficacy (Duration of Response)

    To assess duration of response associated with sequential treatment of the oral combination Tak 228 and 117 followed by nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin. Duration of response is measured as prolonged clinical benefit; clinical benefit is defines as progression free survival on study therapy for at least 6 months.

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 2 years 8 months

  2. Number of Participants With Treatment-related Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v4.0".

    To assess safety associated with sequential treatment of the oral combination Tak 228 and 117 followed by nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin

    Measured: For up to 30 days following last dose, approximately 7 months

  3. Number of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (Safety and Tolerability)

    To assess safety associated with sequential treatment of the oral combination TAK 228 and TAK 117 followed by nab-paclitaxel plus cisplatin per CTCAE v4.0 criteria.

    Measured: For up to 30 days following last dose, approximately 7 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Tak-228 & Tak-117 and Cisplatin & Nab Paclitaxel in people with Triple Negative Breast Cancer, run by Joyce O'Shaughnessy at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 25 inclusion and 29 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 9 May 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Efficacy (Objective Response Rate) (time frame: Through study completion, up to 2 years 8 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03193853, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Aug 2023.
